Our Motorcycle Accident Attorneys Will Show How Negligence Caused the Collision

We will review your case for the four key elements that establish another party’s negligence and its role in the motorcycle crash:

• Duty of Care: All road users are expected to act reasonably to avoid harming others. By driving, they agree to follow all traffic laws and operate their vehicles responsibly.
• Breach of Duty: If the opposing party’s actions, or inactions, put you in harm’s way, they have breached their duty of care.
• Causation: We must show that the other party’s breach directly caused the accident. For example, if a driver entered your lane without checking their blind spot and struck your motorcycle, that action directly led to the crash.
• Damages: These include both financial and non-financial losses you suffered because of the accident, such as medical expenses, lost income, and pain and suffering.

We will use all available evidence to support your negligence claim and demonstrate why you are entitled to compensation.

We Can Take Care of Your Motorcycle Accident Case Without Upfront Costs or Fees

After a collision, victims often face many financial difficulties and concerns. They may even worry that they cannot afford legal representation, leaving them with few options. Here at GED Lawyers, we remove financial barriers to legal representation by covering all case-related expenses upfront.

You won’t be charged any attorney’s fees unless we recover compensation on your behalf. If your case results in an insurance settlement or court award, we receive a previously agreed-upon percentage of that amount as our fee.

We’re happy to explain how our contingency fee agreement works in detail during your free consultation. That way, you can make an informed decision with confidence—no pressure, no surprises.

Can I Receive Compensation for Injuries I Sustained in a Motorcycle Accident?

If you’ve been injured in a motorcycle accident, you may be eligible to file a personal injury claim or lawsuit, especially if the crash was caused by someone else’s negligence, such as distracted driving or speeding. These injuries can be serious, including traumatic brain injuries, road rash, and spinal injuries.

In these situations, personal injury law allows injured individuals to seek compensation, although awards can vary based on state law.

This compensation is intended to help restore your financial and emotional well–being by covering losses that may include:

• Medical expenses
• Lost income due to time away from work
• Lost earned sick or vacation time
• Mental anguish
• Property damage
• Pain and suffering

Wrongful Death

If a loved one passed away in a motorcycle accident caused by someone else’s negligence, certain family members may be eligible to pursue a wrongful death claim. These claims seek compensation for the emotional and financial losses resulting from the loss of life.

Wrongful death compensation may include:

• Funeral and burial expenses
• Loss of the deceased’s income and financial support
• Loss of companionship, guidance, and emotional support
• Mental anguish experienced by surviving family members
• Medical expenses related to the deceased’s final care

Our wrongful death lawyers can help you understand your rights and pursue the full compensation you and your family deserve during this difficult time.

We Must Meet Your State’s Filing Deadline for a Motorcycle Lawsuit

Every state has deadlines for filing a claim in the state’s civil court system, known as the statute of limitations. A motorcycle accident attorney with our firm can advise you on your lawsuit’s timelines and deadlines and whether exceptions apply to your case.

Individuals who do not file their personal injury lawsuits within the window that their state’s laws set will likely not have their cases heard in court. They can also lose the opportunity to recover any compensation for the injuries they sustained in the motorcycle accident.

We can help you avoid this outcome. The sooner you contact us, the sooner we can start working for you. 

What to Do After a Motorcycle Accident

The moments after a motorcycle accident can be overwhelming, but taking the right steps can help protect your health, your legal rights, and your potential compensation. 

Here’s what to do:

• Seek Medical Attention Immediately: A proper diagnosis and treatment plan from your doctor is vital for your recovery. Your medical records are also a key piece of evidence for your insurance claim.
• Report the Accident: Contact law enforcement so an official report can be filed. This report can serve as key evidence in your case.
• Collect Evidence at the Scene: If it’s safe to do so, take photos of the accident scene, your injuries, the vehicles involved, and any road conditions that may have contributed.
• Get Contact Information: Exchange details with the other party and collect contact info from any witnesses.
• Avoid Admitting Fault: Be polite, but do not apologize or admit blame, as this could affect your claim.
• Notify your Insurance Company: Inform your insurer of the accident, but be cautious about what you say and avoid giving a recorded statement without legal advice.
• Contact a Motorcycle Accident Attorney: A personal injury attorney can guide you through the claims process, protect your rights, and handle communication with insurance companies on your behalf.

Acting quickly and carefully can make a significant difference in the outcome of your case. We’re here to help you take the next steps with confidence.
